Triptych [Final Project] Concept

The three main points I wanted to cover for my triptych was Birth, Life, and Death. Within each piece I distinguished something that was important to me. With the help of text throughout each portrait, I used this to represent my everyday thoughts. I used various font styles and forms of text to come up with a general background. I wanted to do this to differentiate moments in my life that weren’t always the same. With “Birth,” I included a baby picture surrounded by various text and texture. Along with my birth date added in the composition, my general idea was to emphasize my birth. Life’s main points were the two pairs of arms trapped by two different schools. My current school, TCNJ, and the school I am transferring to NCA&TSU. I placed TCNJ in the background and NCA&TSU in the forefront to show how I’m starting to let TCNJ go as the semester comes to a close, and accept my new school. Behind the arms laid a brick wall which signified the constant road blocks I’ve faced and still currently face in life, and Death was a memorial to my grandmother who recently passed. I used script to signify words I wanted to say but just couldn’t.
